Comment 6 for bug 281546

Thanks for the workaround - works for me. Weird thing is, it is the exact same keys for me that needed repeating too (left and down).

I have made a shell script with the 2 lines and set it up to run on startup (System->Preferences->Sessions).

However, when synergy is running, the keyboard repeat doesn't work at all on the client itself (eg if I use the actual keyboard, it doesn't repeat), although it repeats through the synergy host..
